Mauhwa Zi Yuan Gong Guan is located nearby the intersection of Dongfeng West Street and Qingping Road. The site for this project once belonged to Shandong Goldstar Chemicals and now is a part of the Changsong Zone under contemplation. It is on the central axis of the urban planning, and part of the central residential area now under construction.
The project covers an area of 13 hectares with a plot ratio of 2.5. It has an overall planned floor area of 380,000 m2 of which 320,000 m2 is above ground. The floor area of the residential part of the project is 270,000 m2 and that of the business part (including a hotel complex), 50,000 m2. Considering high plot ratio and efficient cost-control, the project, containing 2000 households, uses high-rise buildings to lower the building density (the building density of the project is 18%), thus creating a amazingly great sense of space.
In layout planning, the project creates an enclosed space by designing different exteriors for each building with full consideration of the daylighting needs, thus making this community cohesive and enclosed. The 26-storey buildings on the outskirts of the community and 18-stoery around the center of the community form a great view, and the green plants in the patio area gives the residents a feeling a home.
The units in this project are mainly affordable 2- and 3-bedroom apartments, answering to the needs of the mainstream customers. Other small apartments and luxury 4-bedroom apartments make this project attractive to all kinds of customers. The project is now competing for an award for international garden city and garden community endorsed by United Nations Environment Program on behalf of Weifang. This is the first such opportunity for Weifang.
